Success doesn't come with an instruction manual. Instead, there's a lot of trying, failing, and constantly struggling. Success did not come to them in the thunderclaps of their Eureka! moments. Talent was just the beginning ... their progress toward their goals was furthered by their fierce dedication to the day-to-day struggle for achievement.
成功没有附带说明书。相反,成功需要很多的尝试、失败,并不断的奋斗。对于成功者而言,成功并不是突然发生的。天资是第一点……他们向目标前进的过程中更重要,成功的人每天都为了成就而努力奋斗。
